尽管拥有如此漫长而成功的艺术生涯，赫伯斯却对一个简单的主题——咖啡（茶）壶——情有独钟。他以咖啡壶为母题创作的作品造型和色彩的丰富多样，风格媒介千变万化，是荷兰家喻户晓的形象。与一辈子呆在小镇以磨制镜片为生却对近代欧洲哲学产生了重大影响的荷兰哲学家斯宾诺莎（Baruch Spinoza）一样，赫伯斯简朴低调的创作风格恒久而弥新。他以赤子一样的热情秉承了荷兰艺术传统中对静物，对日常生活的热爱与关注。近年来以疫情期间的流行色为灵感创作的《黄色！！！！》（Geel!!!!）在灰色底子上描绘了黄色的咖啡壶，给予孤独的灵魂希望和温暖，而题为《在一起》（Simeon Doorkaar）的作品则聚集了大大小小近十个蓝色咖啡壶，就像一个轻松休闲的派对，表达了人们对正常社交相聚的渴望。

The second solo exhibition of Gubbels at AroundSpace, it includes not only Gubbels’ iconic pieces, but  also his most recent series with bright yellow and gray tones that are distinguished from his previous style, representing the artist’s six-decade long professional career and artistic achievements.

Still Ja

Born in Rotterdam in 1934, Gubbels currently resides in Arnhem, a city located in the east of the Netherlands. He was exposed to a prestigious art environment at an early age. He worked as an assistant for renowned Dutch artists Wally Elenbaas (1912 – 2008) and Louis van Roode (1914 – 1964) in his twenties and later in the studios of Mauris van Beek (1921 – 2003), Fred Sieger (1902 – 1999), and Dick Grossman. In the 1980s, Gubbels was active in the New York art scene, together with his mentor and friend, also Rotterdam-born abstract artist Willem De Kooning (1904 - 1997). Later he was invited to teach at the WdKA: Willem de Kooning Academy in Rotterdam. Gubbels became a member of Gemeenschap Beeldende Kunstenaars (GBK) in 1963 and received high recognition in Europe and North America. His painting and sculpture works are collected by institutions such as the Rijksmuseum and the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam and are also appreciated by several generations of Dutch royal family members. There are multiple museums and art institutions in the Netherlands organizing retrospective exhibitions for him in celebration of his 90th birthday, on January 19, 2024.

A noble-hearted man retains his high aspirations even in old age (quote from a third century Chinese poetry). Ninety is an old age, a number that is close to a hundred. It also represents an achievement, a rare pinnacle. Great art is simple. Gubbels’ artistic practice embraced the glory and legacy of Dutch Golden Age. With endless love and warmth, his art moves audiences beyond borders and languages.

1934年出生于鹿特丹，现居阿纳姆市。年过八旬的他是荷兰最富盛名的艺术家之一，作品中标志性的咖啡壶形象在荷兰家喻户晓。赫伯斯1963年即成为荷兰最大的艺术组织之一“社区视觉艺术家”Gemeenschap Beeldende Kunstenaars (GBK)的一员（该组织已于2017年解散）。他的作品既包括大型的壁画也有架上尺寸的版画，并涉猎雕塑、摄影、现成品装置等多种媒介。

赫伯斯的艺术常常以日常生活用品、静物为主题，例如频繁出现在他的版画和雕塑中的咖啡壶形象。他显然不是仅仅在写实地描绘这些桌椅餐具，而是试图通过这些物品的几何形状以及微妙色彩来重新定义美的价值。在他的作品中，寻常的生活用品被当作传达情感的手段，以及唤起观众记忆与经验的索引。

赫伯斯的创作理念受到观念艺术先驱杜尚的影响，也从超现实主义艺术家曼·雷（Man Ray）、乔治·西格尔（George Segal）等人处吸收营养，在处理画面构图和色彩等技巧上更是传承了意大利艺术家莫兰迪与莫迪里阿尼一路看似纤弱实则隽永大气的手法。

赫伯斯的作品在欧洲多家重要美术馆展出。2004年末2005年初阿纳姆现代艺术博物馆为他举办大型回顾展，奠定了他在荷兰当代艺术史上的显著地位。纽约现代艺术馆、荷兰国立美术馆、阿姆斯特丹当代艺术馆等机构，以及荷兰女王等欧洲重要私人收藏均永久收藏了赫伯斯的作品。

Born in Rotterdam in 1934 and now residing in Arnhem, Klaas Gubbels is one of the most important artists in the Netherlands. His works have been permanently collected by the Museum of Modern Art in New York, Rijksmuseum Amsterdam and Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam. Gubbels became a member of Gemeenschap Beeldende Kunstenaars (dissolved in 2017)in 1963.He often uses still life and daily objects as subject matters, especially his favorite subject matter-coffee pots, which are well known in the Netherlands. Inspired by Duchamp, Man Ray and George Segal's ideas about art, Gubbels also adopted Italian painters Morandi and Modigliani's subtlety and delicacy in his paintings.
